OS/Framework: RTK, Samsung MMI

Technology: C/C++

Role: Technical Support/Client interaction

Client: Samsung NOIDA and Bangladesh
We are responsible for providing CSL1 support to Samsung 2G feature phone business on STE platforms.

3. 
   ANDROID Video Playback Pipeline integration in Stagefright for U8500 platform (SMP Dual core ARM Cortex BaseBand + Multimedia Application Processor SOC)
   

OS/Framework: ANDROID 2.3 GingerBread , 1.6 DONUT , 2.0 Eclair

Technology: C/C++, OpenMAX

Role: Architecture / Design / Development / Testing

Client: SONY-ERICSSON
The purpose of this activity is to adapt the Stagefright Middleware Framework provided by the Android to the STE’s Open MAX based Video architecture.
I am the tech leader /owner of the job.

4. 
   ANDROID Camera development for U8500 platform (SMP Dual core ARM Cortex BaseBand + Multimedia Application Processor SOC)
   

OS/Framework: ANDROID 1.5 Cupkake , 1.6 DONUT , 2.0 Eclair

Technology: C/C++, OpenMAX

Role: Architecture / Design / Development / Testing

Client: SONY-ERICSSON
The purpose of this activity is to adapt the Camera Middleware Framework provided by the Android namely the Camera Service library to the STE’s Open MAX based camera architecture. The use cases targeted are Preview, photo capture in JPEG, Video Record in MPEG4.

I am the module leader /owner of the job and did the total design development and final testing of the entire use cases. The Hardware Camera involved is 8MP CCD Toshiba sensor.

The work involved the complete understanding of Camera stack in Android as well as the camera technologies. It also involves the understanding of OPEN CORE Packet Video framework for recording pipeline. The Android Camera application was also modified for supporting 8MP still capture

Demo of the use cases will be shown in Mobile Congress Barcelona.

5. 
   Linux Camera development for U8500 platform
   

OS : Linux

Technology : C / OpenMAX

Role : Technical leader

Client : Internal Teams and Other Frameworks like Maemo
The purpose of this activity is to make the camera system available on Linux platform as a BSP+ program, so that it can be integrated seamlessly into any Linux based Camera application frameworks like ANDROID and Maemo.

Here I was responsible for leading a team of two engineers for making Camera available. It involved the development of Linux based physical memory allocator and Camera MMIO driver. Camera MMIO driver is responsible for doing board level settings required by camera module like setting clocks, GPIOs etc. The Memory allocator infrastructure was developed for allocating physical memory required for camera buffers.

Then the Open MAX IL based applications were written to test the use cases at Linux OS level.

6. 
   Windows Mobile Camera driver development for STE’s Stn8810/15 NOMADIK Multimedia Application Processor family.
   

OS : Windows Mobile 6.0

Technology : Platform Builder, Direct Show, Camera framework

Role : Module leader/Owner

Client : Samsung, Elektrobit (Both the projects are now in market)
The purpose of this activity was to develop a camera driver exposing the STE’s underlying imaging system technologies to the camera framework of Windows Mobile. The job was to program the camera hardware through exposed interfaces and to interact with the top level camera APIs. It required control/exposure of all the camera hardware features like whitebalance , saturation , brightness , scene modes. Also it involved the interaction with the underlying Video driver for STILL JPEG Capture use cases.

Here I was the complete owner for the activity and also responsible for the mentoring of some newcomers to the task.

Also I was responsible for the camera compliance testing (LOGO Test Kit) with Microsoft as without passing these compliance tests no product can come in the market.

7. 
   Windows CE based Video driver development for STE’s Stn8810/15 NOMADIK Application processor family.
   

OS : Windows CE 5.0

Technology : Platform Builder,

Role : Module leader/Owner

Client : Internal teams
The purpose of this activity was to develop WinCE based device driver exposing the video codec, imaging functionalities of the hardware to the above software layers like Camera driver, DSHOW framework. This was a stream based driver and interacted with the Hardware Abstraction Layer. The driver exposed services like MPEG4 encode / decode, JPEG Encode/Decode, Camera Image Signal Processor. I was the sole owner of the driver for design, development, testing and maintenance.

8. 
   System Integration / Validation of Multimedia components on Windows CE BSP (Microsoft certification) STE’s Stn8810 NOMADIK Application processor family.
   

OS : Windows CE 5.0

Technology : Platform Builder,

Role : Team Player

Client : Microsoft LTK certification
The purpose of the activity was to get the BSP of our system, Microsoft LTK certified. Here I was responsible to write the integration/test plan and develop test cases for system verification. Most of the bugs were fixed and then the LTK were run. After achieving the required success rate the system was sent to Microsoft for final testing / certification.

9. 
   Basic study on Symbian OS
   

10. 
    Miscellaneous :
    

BEL was given the task of replacing the existing old army switching network (Radio Based) to modern ATM based digital switch network. The Digital switch consist of the combination of all the switching capabilities prevailing at that time like ISDN , PSTN , Junction Lines , CCS7 , CAS. A digital switch was designed based on these technologies.

1. 
   Low level drivers for Telephone switch hardware
   

Technology : AM186 microcontroller,

Role : Team Player
Apart from main call processing and Signaling software the low level drivers for the hardware cards were required. I was assigned to write low level OS Independent drivers for PSTN, ISDN and junction line cards. All the cards were AMD186 Microcontroller based. Here the work involved extensive study of components and controller datasheets and to write the controlling software for the card. These drivers interacted with the Main Call Processing software of the switch.

2. 
   Call Processing software for a Digital Switch.
   

Technology : C/C++,

Role : Team Player
The main call processing software was written in RTOS QNX and run on Pentium based Single Board Computer. The software has many modules like data base, Call Manager, Modules to handle different kind of calls, signaling modules like CCS7 and CAS. I was handling some of the modules like different call handling and exchange configuration management.

3. 
   Network Monitoring / Switch configuration software
   

OS : Windows
